A Brief Introduction

My favourite aspect of sustainable design is re:design and upcycling. It is an individual and unique approach to getting the most out of a garment. The creative ways in which a garment can be transformed, improved and made into something wearable and desired, are more exciting to me than any other aspect of sustainable fashion.
